Man, an omni-hater, not just hating people trying to bring Rust to Linux but also hating on Linux. Must be a very rewarding sense of superiority.

This is entirely Intel's fault.




The only people to "hate" on Linux are the Rust community; in fact, they genuinely DESPISE the Linux maintainers for allowing themselves to be so brazenly exploited over the years. This is akin to how communists despise the workers.

Now, as for me: I respect Rust, not hate it, and only sympathise / pity the wider Rust movement. I believe their resources are much better spent someplace else: NOT bickering over decades-old operating systems and getting into the other people's codebases (this is what pleading for "common abstractions" is, really.) Had they learnt to stop competing for popularity and recognition, they would be very successful in validating the borrowing hypothesis. The conviction is not there: had there been conviction, heart, and commitment, they wouldn't bother with old codebases, and would instead make something special.

P.S. I don't require hate to be superior, my nature is sufficient to that end.
